luckypenny 1 Posted September 1, 2012 Just preop diet. I don't drink too much caffeine. I didn't think I was allowed any pain relievers cus they thin the blood? Am I wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karewpah 173 Posted September 1, 2012 I was told Tylenol is always the safe bet...if it persisted, then tylenol with a cup of caffeinated tea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
